Had a short stint as a singing soldier in the Israeli Army (yup, that's right...) She has performed in several Off Broadway shows (for full theatre credits CLICK HERE, Proud AE member!) One of those Off Broadway shows was Solitary Light, at Axis Theater Company, where she met the incredible Paul Carbonara, former music director and guitarist of the pop band Blondie.
